Something flashy, colorful and unique is coming to downtown Sacramento in the next few months. The WX portion of Highway 50 will soon be home to a mural museum.

在接下来的几个月中，Sacramento市中心将有些浮华，多彩和独特的东西。 50号高速公路的WX部分将很快成为壁画博物馆的所在地。

It's all through a Sacramento-based nonprofit named ARTners and is the brainchild of Markos Egure who started the organization at his company “Wes Kos Images."

这都是通过一家位于Sacramento的非营利组织Artners，是Markos Egure的创意，他在其公司“ Wes Kos Images”中创办了该组织。

“The word ‘ARTners’ and the meaning itself is those who have made the commitment to live on the creative path,” said Egure.

Egure说：“'艺术家'一词和含义本身就是那些致力于走在创意道路上的人。”

Fast-forward to 2019 when Egure and ARTners president Teresa Gutierrez approached the city of Sacramento about doing a project underneath the freeway in partnership with Caltrans and the state of California.

在2019年，当时Egure and Artners总裁Teresa Gutierrez与Caltrans和Caliveria合作，与Sacramento有关在高速公路下面进行的项目。

“We approached this project, we thought of many things. One of the things was we wanted the art to represent some of the people that don't get represented, we wanted to make this a project for Sacramento, of Sacramento,” said Egure.

Egure说：“我们接手了这个项目，考虑了很多事情。其中一件事是，我们希望艺术能代表一些没有被代表的人，我们想为Sacramento多做一个项目。”

The project in the works is under the portion of Highway 50 and will be from 24th Street to 6th Street and will see artwork on about 28 pillars.

该项目地点位于50号高速公路的一部分，将是从第6街到第24街，将在大约28个支柱上看到艺术品。

“We want to honor inspirational people in Sacramento as well,” said Gutierrez. “We can do anybody on the pillars and any subjects on the pillars that meet the criteria, but to have the artists, the local artists here doing it, it's so super important.”

Gutierrez说：“我们想向Sacramento那些鼓舞人心的人致敬，我们在符合标准的支柱上做艺术品，但是重要的是，要让当地艺术家在这里做。”

Egure says the current project did not receive any public art funds.

Egure说，当前的项目没有获得任何公共艺术基金。

“So we have to fundraise ourselves,” he said. “We have to write grant after grant after grant to possibly get some (funds).”

他说：“因此，我们必须自己筹款。”

According to Egure, Caltrans owns the project and is currently funding other projects... but not this one.

根据Egure的说法，Caltrans拥有该项目，目前正在为其他项目提供资金……但不是这个项目。

“The challenge is that we have to earn our own funding,” he said.

他说：“挑战是我们必须赚取自己的资金。”

Through Clean California, Caltrans has put money aside to fund projects, like the one being done by ARTners, where the goal is to beautify state freeways and highways.

通过Clean California，Caltrans拨出资金来资助项目，例如ARTners正在 开展的项目，目标是美化州高速公路和高速公路。
